In this case, not only is today’s podcast guest a former mentoree and pupil, he was also my first “coach” inside the TD Mastermind when I first expanded that program in 2008 and needed someone to help me run the program. Meet Troy Fontana. Troy […]
The Reinvention Series Finale | What if You Haven’t Even Met You Yet?
As the Reinvention Series draws to a close, it’s only fitting that it ends on a STRONG note. In many ways, we are always “reinventing.” Sometimes small. Sometimes big. As I’ve shared in the last 5-episodes, the past 3-years challenged me to the brink and forced me to do some serious soul-searching. Fortunately, this has […]

While last week’s episode was my deepest one up to that date, this one today takes the icing on the cake. In early 2021, I was diagnosed with an extremely serious back condition that was going to lead to a 14-hour back surgery. I was already burnt out. I was already shot. I had just […]

Football Star to Film-Maker – The Incredible Story of Nick Alfieri & “Unicorn Town”
Today’s podcast is crazy and inspiring, and it takes me back to a time when I was playing pro-American football in Europe. It’s about a young man who went from being a college gridiron star at Georgetown to quitting the #1 graduate film school in the country, to creating an extraordinary new film and documentary […]
TD Spittin’ Fire – A Motivational Mosaic to Get Your Mind Right
Y’all have been asking for some more spittin’ fires…so here we GOOO!!! I was gifted a very special art-piece/“mosaic” recently that has a ton of my motivational “mantras” on it. The mosaic is from a woman who recently opened her own gym (Tricia Hoyt, Journey 333, Londonderry, NH) and attributed a ton of her vision […]

It doesn’t matter to me if it’s a keynote, motivational talk, leadership event, or a chapel service… I just love sharing from the heart. And if the audience includes a bunch of young kids and I get […]
